allow limewire to access internet Help
 

i tried to run lime wire but a box appeared telling me to allow limewire's access to the internet but i don't know how to do that! help!

* Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other); Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

* Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?

* After opening LW, wait at least 10 mins before using; let it settle down 1st.

Can you give us a total desciption of your set up:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your isp provider?

Well if you can't connect with all those programs then it's either your internet provider blocking or it's a router or firewall causing problems.

It would be very helpful if you could do that test I suggested you try above.

If you have the trial version of Norton firewall & it's expired then you should remove it! Uninstall it. It might be adding to your problems. Also configure your XP firewall using the link I gave above.
